Itinerary

You can join us at the Húsafell center or Klaki base camp or choose pick-up from Reykjavik. If you're driving yourself from the city, allow yourself at least 2 hours to reach the meeting locations. Please check in 30 minutes before the start of the tour. You'll have a chance to grab a bite or use a restroom at the Húsafell Center before your tour starts. Then, we'll take a short ride to the Langjökull Glacier, where our snowmobiling adventure will begin.

  • Snowmobiling is an activity in which anyone can participate
  • No previous snowmobiling experience is required
  • A certified guide will give you a short briefing on safety and using a snowmobile and provide you with all the necessary safety equipment

As we get onto the Langjökull, you'll be amazed by the never-ending landscape of white snow stretching far into the horizon. Constantly moving glaciers create an incredible landscape with moulins, icefalls, and crevasses. Your knowledgeable guide will tell you more about the glacier's natural history and why it makes Iceland unique. You'll get a chance to take photos of the surrounding mountains and volcanoes, making the memory last forever.

Note: The actual view of an ice cave may look different from pictures since ice caves are a natural phenomenon and are constantly changing. How they look may vary depending on the season, time of the day, lighting, and other factors.

  • This is a combination of two separate tours. If one of the tours is canceled, you will still be able to join the other part.
  • The rate is per person, based on two people sharing a snowmobile. Single-rider supplements can only be arranged on-site.
  • Tour duration may vary depending on glacier conditions, and the ice tunnel may change due to ongoing maintenance.
  • To operate a snowmobile independently, you must be at least 17 years old and hold a valid driver's license.
